    Blinds 150/300, changing every 20.
    I have 4200, Villain has 1900.
    Game is speeding up with 6 players left.

    I have Ac2c, on SB. Villain has limped UTG+1, I limp and BB checks. (Pot 900)

    Flop
    Kc Jh 8c, I check, BB checks, Villain sticks in half his stack 600.


    Whats my move? I've got the odds to push. Is it the right move every time?

    Not sure what you mean by "the odds to push" but you can expect to have 12 outs almost always and occasionally to be ahead. And occasionally he has something like 44 and will fold despite the great pot odds.

    I would push now, but I think you should just bet when it comes to you the first time.

    well you'll be putting in 1600 to win a possible 2500 if he calls and as dave says you're aces are sure to be outs as well so you're only a 55-45 dog if he has something like kq

    definitely the right move every single time

    Sorry RT, still trying to put all the pieces of the pie together, please excuse my bad terminology.

    I was figuring I have 12(9+3) outs that gives me about a .36 to 1 shot, and the pot odds are roughly the same. Should this dictate a push?

    Is my thinking above even correct?

    I didn't know if the gamble was the correct move as I might be better to keep my remaining stack of 3900 and use it more effectively. I would be joint chip leader if I folded.

    re-reading and going through some outs charts I see mrwexford is spot on, and I had a .45 to 1 shot at hitting one of my outs. i still wonder whether I should push all the time. I didn't think the UTG+1 was going to fold.

    9 outs for nut flush & 3 Aces all make you the winner.
    At this stage of the game if you are there to win this is a good opportunity to knock a player out and be chip leader by a distance.
    I think your Ace dictates the push every time.

    yeah the more and more I think about it, the more it looks like I should have pushed.

    I layed it down loosing only 300. He showed AA.

    When someone with about 6BBs limps rather than pushing, this should set alarm bells. Its usually AA or KK which is why I would c/f this flop.

    EDIT: Just seen he did have AA lol
